Ecology

Pila species are a host of a trematode Multicotyle purvisi.^[8]

Human use

The shells of Pila are used in traditional ethnomedicine for weakness by Saharia people in Rajasthan, India.^[9]

Pila ampullacea and Pila pesmei are some of the rice field snail species traditionally eaten in Thailand that have been displaced by the invasive Golden Apple Snail, Pomacea canaliculata.^[10]
